Early Fashion

When Adam first became aware
That his privacy was in question,
He asked his only fashion expert…
A fig leaf was her first suggestion

Real fun, Barbara! But even then, he only got one garment, and she got three - some things never change, do they?

(Laughing) Step aside, Liz Claiborne, fashion simply provides one of life's three basic necessities: food, clothes and shelter. This is an amazingly funny poem, Barbara! Love, Carolyn
